Description

Entomology and the study of insects is almost as old as times. However scientific study in the modern sense began only relatively recently, in the 16th century. It is applied in every single aspect of our life from art to pest control to philosophy. In this class students will learn in depth how to cultivate and preserve their own specimen. No prior knowledge necessary. Learn different ways of rehydration, pinning and preserving your specimen. By the end of this class you will be able to preserve your own specimens and have the knowledge of different display possibilites. We keep class sizes small to ensure the personal attention that may be needed. The class includes Death’s-head hawkmoth specimen and your very own Lepidoptera specimen preparation kit. No additional items are needed.
